Chapter 112: Offering Tea on Bended Knee
Lin Yuzhi sneered, "Nothing much. As a daughter-in-law, you haven't served me the customary tea yet. It wouldn't be too much to ask for you to serve me a cup today, would it?"
The wedding ceremony had been so chaotic that the tea-serving ritual had been skipped. Today, she was determined to make Ruan Mianmian serve her.
"Fine, let's get it over with. Once I serve the tea, I have to go back to be with A-Yan."
It was certainly not unreasonable for a new bride to serve tea to her mother-in-law.
"I am sorry, Great God Jinwu, but that is my secret," Chen Qingyang said apologetically. His attitude remained respectful; after all, the entity was indeed terrifyingly powerful compared to the current Chen Qingyang.
Everyone present remembered clearly that this golden liquid was the same substance Mo Ran had used to spray the two of them earlier. What was the meaning of bringing it out again?
Bledsoe tried to repeat his previous tactic, using his powerful physique to crush Yi Yang through brute force. Yi Yang was indeed unable to withstand Bledsoe’s impact; physical confrontation remained one of his weaknesses.
Jiang Dong broke away from the battlefield in a few breaths at ten times the speed of sound. No powerful figures pursued him, as he knew they had all been held back by those fighting to the death. Before leaving, Jiang Dong left the brick behind and reminded Old Lady Hua that it had been obtained from beneath the stone stele at the Corpse King's Dojo.
"Master Lu certainly has a grand demeanor, but isn't this gift a bit too extravagant for a junior?" the old man remarked coolly.
"Shadows fear nothing more than light. A shadow without a body has nowhere to hide under intense radiance. This is merely my speculation, and whether it is feasible remains to be verified," Mo Ran whispered into Zimo's ear, sharing her thoughts.
This was the first mutated medicinal herb they had encountered so far. Although it was only fifty years old, such a mutation made it exceptionally precious. In the current environment of the Earth, one might not find another like it even in ten years.
Flames coiled in the surrounding air, and an overwhelming, eerie, and peerless demonic aura surged. Even the crimson divine clouds only reached halfway up the body of the Heaven-Swallowing Beast.
He then locked onto the opposing Yasuo with his ultimate ability, Slaying Shadows, dodging the damage from Yasuo's Q skill and a shot from the defensive tower. Upon landing, he delivered an auto-attack to trigger Thunderlord’s Decree, simultaneously unleashing his Q skill, Shuriken Flip, from three directions toward the Yasuo who had passed through his body with an E skill.
Seeing Qiao Dongmei’s certainty, Mother Wang found it quite strange, but after hearing what Qiao Dongmei had to say, she could not help but change her expression.
He had heard his master, the Great Mage Kong Xue, speak often of the affairs of the jianghu. While lock-picking was a skill, it was considered a fringe craft.
Yu Ling shook her head as she walked. She was hungry and had no time to worry about others, not even if they were descendants of her great-grandfather.
Wukong discovered a large box of chocolates in the third car. Zhuoma hesitated for two seconds before decisively abandoning all the compressed biscuits to make room for the chocolates.
Seeing this, Xiao Mo felt a sense of relief. "Until we meet again—or rather, it would be better if we didn't," he muttered to himself, before immediately sprinting toward the surface of the deep pool with all his might.
The booklet was inscribed with archaic characters reading "One Qi Transforms into Two Streams." It was the ancestral secret manual that the Ji Longjun brothers had found in the ruins of the Ji family estate.
He was furious, his inner mania fueled by a deep sense of helplessness, which he unleashed upon the now-limp Melissa.
Jian Han understood in her heart that someone like Jin Sicheng was out of her league. As for her, she was just an ordinary person, doing this for money to treat her brother’s illness.
Ling Feng weighed his words carefully: "The chaos in the human realm is already a foregone conclusion. I believe your Majesty must maintain the stability of the people's hearts. As long as the people remain steadfast, Ling Feng will have nothing to fear!"
"Yes, Master. Being able to consume such high-grade divine beast cores is your grace. They will surely be forever grateful and loyal to you," Stone said. After saying this, he respectfully accepted the core and leaped down to share it with his companions.
